Nom ☺
All of your videos are so humorous, informative and well edited, i would like you to know how much i enjoy them.... A LOT 😄
Ditto :)
adam cowan Cheers Adam!
Damn, now I really need to look at buying a CNC machine. This looks so awesome and fun to try.
This was my first time watching one of your videos, and I am every impressed at the way you went about this project! Seriously, you checked all the boxes! Your knowledge of the design process, machine setup, the way you presented the content along with narration, editing the video to highlight what we needed to see, while also removing the repetitive portions as to be conscious & respectful of our time! Without a doubt, you are a huge value to UA-cam, as well as both a qualified craftsman and quality gentleman! Already subscribed as a reminder for myself to check out any & all other videos you produce. Not sure how I found my way here after so much previous time spent on UA-cam, but I'm thrilled that it finally happened! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge! Best wishes for a healthy, prosperous, exciting and Happy New Year! (gw) 👍
Wow!
That is so cool. Well done!
look at that fine ass box!
Holy cow! What a great video!

That's a fine ass-box.

The level of detail on the coin is amazing. Great work!
Garage workshop Would love to have run it in a proper metal CNC mill though, with good work holding. The quality (and speed) would be much better!
Great project as always !... Love the patina workaround :)
"look at that fine ass box" best part

Is this what are you talking about lol
Hello, it's a great video and very detailed.
What kind of blade do you use for bronze, I would like to try it with my cnc.
You think that the cnc has to have a great power to do this.
Very cool! What CNC machine did you use? How much would a set up like this cost!
Look at that fine ass box! 😂😂. Great project! I recently did my first small coin engraving with my logo, so i could add them to my furniture builds. Looking forward to making more things now!
Wow, I love how the coin comes out!!
I really like your content! well done
You're so crazy... Awesome videos, interesting variety and clean work....keep the nice Job.
Nicely done Sir. Great video
Awesome tutorial S&L!
Just what I was looking for, thanks man!
I like your project, very beautiful made. Thank you for sharing your amazing video
"look at that fine ass box!" you had me rolling!
Thats one fine ass box!
haha
imagine someone gets a package from amazon and says DAMN! that's a fine ass box!
Wow this was amazing video!!
Nice work!
Thanks for a nice video - saw it in 2020 , and looks very good @cool ...a big thumbs up !!!
what software did you use?
that was really awesome. love the fine-ass box!
This is really interesting, I was wondering if u mange to do the milling on the edge? Du u sell your own coins?
+Buddah Kush using a better milling machine you can no doubt do the milling of the rim on the machine as well, but on this one it was asking a bit too much. I would sell them, but considering the time that goes into them for me to sell them for any reasonable price would mean basically not valuing that time at all, or charge far too much money for anyone willing to pay.
My first thought when seeing the box: What? No brass hinges? ;)
Very cool project - thanks for sharing it :)
Wonderful!
Very cool build.
Fine ass work!
That was super cool.
Excellent videos as always. You videos always have a very clean and polished feel to them. (y)
MinerAmax Cheers!
Very nice
Quick question I’m after a custom coin made is that something you would be interested in doing
If you’re serious, and you’re ready to pay what it would actually cost, reach out to me in private. I have a contact form or email listed on my website.
@@SwitchAndLever ok thank you
Great job!
great work congrats!
amazing and informatic video
That is beautiful!
A very good video, thanks!
If you have something in the way of a rock tumbler you could add wear and smooth out some of the layer lines with some very fine sand.
What machine is being used here and where can I get it?
informative and well edited
This is such a Cool Idea !!!
not2fast4u2c Cheers!
nice work ... where we can get the machine?
0:24 Actualy, several coinS on the same copper plate ;) Cool video!
Very nice work
The Roland handled it like a champ, they turned out really well.
l0ckcr4ck3r It handled it like a champ in what you get to see, I ruined three coins (not counting the double sided tape disaster) while trying to get the settings to a good level. There's a lot of vibration when milling metal.
Really nice idea for a gift !
Keld Sørensen Indeed, it was very well received! Thanks Keld!
Nicely done
were did you get the mashin
Most Excellent!
Awesome video :)
I am just starting at metal milling... What drills have you used?
No drills at all, this is milled out using a small engraving bit.
That's super duper good. I really want to do it. Someday... :)
do you make the coin box for sell?
Dude. This is a great help. Thanks!!
What are you planning? :D
Switch & Lever *walks away while whistling nonchalantly*
beautiful job
This is so cool. I never knew that is how coins are made
It's not, this is how this coin is made (well, it's actually a medal). Actual coins are struck between dies imparting the shape of the die on the coin. But, that's beyond the average home machinist to do.
you'r good, man, you'r good !!!!
Where can I buy the CNC milling machine
The Personal Coin may mean that while in one's travels, the level of service is variant to an individuals cast, clan, and worthiness!
Just wow!
Shame I don't have that machine
I was just coming to see how to make my own coin but I got a fine ass box too. #HAPPY_AF
Awesome 👌
Across-the-board amazing!
thats so awesome
I tried making one but the result was very disappointing. How do you get such quality
Fine ass box, indeed. I enjoyed this video.
What size endmill did you use? Didn't seem to catch it in the video. A link maybe?
+Dino Selamaj that's because it's not an endmill, it's an engraving cutter.
That makes more sense.
Link to the cutter?
You are a wild and crazy guy!
Beautiful
I'm glad I watched "Look at this fine ass box!"
I agree! That is a fine-ass box!!👍
Really impressive.
Awesome!
very, very nice :)
FINE ass box and bitchin coins!! Ave might have you beat in subs but you have him beat in perfection. Thanks for what you do.
Cool!
Hey , any tips of creating a depth map from an image ? Do you know any good tutorials , of going thru the entire process of it .Thank you .
+dontonipz I kind of just learned by doing, and by having experience with depth maps from 3d modeling, and drawing on the computer. I unfortunately don't have any tips, beyond that you should apply your depth map in your 3d software so you can actually see how it looks like as you're working on it, and where you need to alter to make it look the way you want, switching back and forth between 2d and 3d.
+Switch & Lever Thank you , i am doing just that, but i thout you had some tips.I will continue to do that :)
+dontonipz Wish I had a magic way of doing it, but it's all hard work, and failing a lot until you get it right.
Yep i know , thats probably the hardest part of the 3d , i use a plugin for photoshop ,named DOF PRO ( dofpro.com ) Wich helps me a litle bit .Check it out .
Very nice.
Very nice
coins are pretty cool..... but thats a fine ass box!
love this video
nice job !
thank you for teach me how to make my won coin!
Now is time to unpack my high tech tools.
do you make dye?
Câlice de boîte de tabarnak!
That is a nice ass box
Could this be done smaller?
Couldn't this be done with a forge?
I mean to melt down copper or aluminum and pour it into a mold which has the images on top/bottom...
Would the effect be the same or worse?
Casting metal and having it flow out in this fine of a detail without something like a roto casting machine (which forces the metal out with centrifugal force), and keeping the cast metal hot enough as it flows out so it doesn't solidify half way, is such a hugely complex endeavor it's not worth it. It's mainly only done with silver and gold, because those metals melt at lower temperatures, and generally you cast pretty small stuff with it.
Question sir: "if your cnc machine is not intended for metal, how about milling plastic and use it to make a mold for metal?"
Why you might think that that's a great idea.
Wait until you pour that hot metal on that plastic
@@red2965 I'm sure he means make a 2 part sand mold. You wouldn't cast it on the plastic directly.
weathering touch was very nice.
How do you make the tails
What cnc machine are you using for this video?
I literally show the machine and model in the video.
@@SwitchAndLever haha, nice. I literally went to your cheap CNC video hoping that was it. lol. Thank you!
Wow that turn out great the my first project in my cnc was a coin and it turn out really bad also i broke 2 carbidre end mills
